He's accused of stealing a sport utility vehicle with a 4-year-old boy inside it in Longmont Wednesday and then carjacking two other vehicles during the morning rush hour.

The boy was not hurt but Stone hit and seriously injured a state trooper deploying stop sticks. Court documents allege Stone was driving around 100 mph at the time.
